RECEPTACLE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Application led January 24, 1918. Serial No. 213,502.

To all rwhom z't may concern.'

Be it known that I, CORNELIUS W. Bocnnr, a citizen of the United States, and a resldent of the city ofNew York, borough of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented a new and Improved Receptacle, of which the followmg ls'a full, clear, and exact description.

Among the principal objects whlch the present invention has in view are: to reduce the cost of a receptacle of the character herein after described; to prevent leakage and to strengthen the construction of the receptacle; and to reinforce the structure to avoid collapsing the same.

` Drawings.

Fig. 3 is a vertical section of a receptacle` constructed and arranged in accordance `with the present invention the Iblanks from which it is constructed belng shaped to form a straight-sided vessel;

Fig. 4 is a horizontal sect1on,ithe sectlon being taken as on the line 1 -4 in Fig. 3;

Fig. 5 is a horizontal section of a receptacle approximately rectangular in 'horizonv tal cross section. y

' Deacm'pton.

As seen in the drawings, the blanks 10- and 11 are each shaped to form neck-forming sections 12 and 13. In the` sections, the neckforming ends are connected by strips 14, which are severed at the center and folded back upon the neck-forming-sections to reinforce the structure and to form a ridge over which the edge 15 of the inner blank 11 may be folded.

The length of the respective blanks corresponds accurately with the circumference of the receptacle or the laminations of the wall thereof formed by the said blanks when folded over the mold or mandrel. 'When the blanks are foldedover the forms, the edges 16 and 17 are butted to form a closedvseam.

When making the bottle form shown in Fig. 2 of the drawings, the edges 18 of the neck-formlng. portions are so shaped that when said neck portions are contracted upon the mold, the said edges abut and form closed seams.

W'hen the two blanks 10 and 11 are placed in position to be adhered, they are mutualllly t e arranged so that the seams formed by edges 18 are, disposed in staggered relation. This arrangement alsoV insures the necessary staggered relation of the seams formed by the edges 16 and 17 of the blanks.

' As the iblanks placed upon the mandrel, a suitable ad esive is disposed between them. The blanks are held on the molds until the adhesive sets, when the moldA is withdrawn.

If the shape is one having a contracted mouth or neck end, such as shown in Fi 2 of the drawings, the mold is preferably withdrawn before the bottom of the v,receptacle is formed. In all blanks, the 4bottom of the receptacle'is formed from segment-like sections 19 and 20. The sections 19 and 20 converge so that the points 21 thereof are axially alined and superposed.

To avoid leakage which might occur through an aperture left in the receptacle at this point, a disk 22 is inserted between the laminations formed by the sections 19 ,and 20.

In the manufacture of the receptacles, the adhesive above referred to is distributed on the disk and the sections 19 and 20 are pressed firmly thereupon until the adhesive sets. The disk 22 in this manner effectively closes all seams or openings in the bottom of the receptacle and also reinforces the same. It will be understood that receptacles cons tructed and arranged in accordance with the present invention may be formed to a variety of shapes, .5 of the drawings. In Fig. 3, the receptacle has a cylindrical body. It is obvious that if desired, the opening end of the .receptacle rmay be flared without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

In Fig. 5 of the drawings, the receptacle is shown as having a square or substantially rectangular form.

In all instances, whether circular, rectangular, or polylateral, the sections 19 and 20 converge to the center or axis of lthe receptac edges of the said sections terminate in diver- Patented Feb. 4, 1919..

such as illustrated by Figs. 3 and` le. and the seams formed by the butted gent seams formed by the edges of the nicks 23 in the blanks 10 and 11. Between the nlcks 23, a triangular piece 24, which fills mthe space between the outer edges of the nicks when the blanks are formed into the com; pleted receptacle. By nioking the blanks 1n the manner shown, provision is made for distributing the material to permlt the turning of the lower edge or perimeter of the bottom of the receptacle.

. Suitable covers for the receptacles are l formed. These covers are preferably constructed from two layers or laminations adhered in the manner described when referring to the blanks 10 and 11. 'Ifhe coyers are shaped or molded to form a ralsed ridge 25. The ridge 25 forms an annular groove adapted to fit over the opening edge of the receptacle. The edges of the receptacle are formed by overturning the edge 15 of the blanks 11, to form a ridge within the opening edge of the receptacle. In a s1m1lar manner the outer blank forming the cover has an inturned edge 26. Preferably the edge 26 of the cover dependssufiiclent y below the top of the annular space 27 of the cover to extend below the ridge formed by g the edge 15. In this manner, a lock is proing radially separated sections, said sections converging to the center of the Abottom formed thereby; and means disposed between said bottom-forming sections for reinforcing said bottom.

2. A receptacle as characterized having the body portion thereof formed of laminated sheets permanently attached to one another, each sheet forming one joint substantiall lengthwise of said body, the joints of the aminations being relatively. staggered, and each of said sheets having bottom-forming radially separated sections,

said sections converging to the center of the bottom formed thereby; and means disposed between said bottom-forming sections for reinforcing said bottom and for closing any aperture t erethrough. 3. A receptacle as the body portion thereof formed of laminated sheets permanently attached to one another, each sheet formin -one joint substantiall lengthwise of sai body, the joints of the amnations being relatively staggered, and each of said sheets having bottom-forming radially separated sections,

characterized having body; and an insert between the sections of adjacent laminations adhesively secured thereto for reinforcing and closing said bottom.

5. A receptacle as characterized having a laminated body, the laminations each forming one seam extendin lengthwise of said body, each lamination aving a plurality of neck-,forming radially separated sections, said sections converging to form a contracted neck, the adjacent edges of said sections being juxtaposed to form seams, the seams of adjacent laminations being disposed in staggered relation.

6. Areceptacle as characterized having a laminated body, the laminations each' formin one seam extending lengthwise of said bo y, 'each lamination having a plurality of neck-forming radially separatedl sections, said sections converging to form a contracted neck, the adjacent edges of said sections being juxtaposed to'form seams, the seams of adjacent laminations being disposed in staggered relation, the innermost neck-:forming sections having end extensions adapted to be rolled outward over the yedges o the neck formed by said sections for linishing the end of said neck.

7. A receptacle as characterized having a laminated body, the laminations each forming one seam extending lengthwise of said body, each lamination having a plurality of neckforming radially separated sections, said sections converging to form a contracted neck, the adjacent edges of said sections being juxtaposed to form seams, the seams of adjacent laminations being disposed in staggered relation, the innermost neck-forming sections having end extensions ada ted to be rolled outward over the edges o the neck formed by said sections for finishin the end of said neck; and a lplurality 0% rid e-forming members integra y connected wit said neck-forming sections for reinforcing said neckforming sections for thickening the end of the neck of said receptacle. i.

` 8. A receptacle as characterized having a laminated body, the laminations extending completely around the same, each lamination forming one seam extending substantially parallel with the axis of said body, said s'eams being disposed in relatively staggered relation; a plurality of end-extended finish for the heck of said receptacle, said finish being atta and a,reinforcing disk for sealin the bottom of said receptacle, said disk eing disposed between the bottom-forming segments of said laminations.
